Medium processing device and medium transaction device

Abstract

A medium processing device includes a casing that has an opening through which an interior of the casing communicates with an exterior thereof, a first unit that is storable in the casing, with a first end thereof at a side of the opening, a second unit that is storable in the casing, with a second end thereof at the side of the opening, a conveyance section, including a roller, provided in the first unit, the conveyance section conveying a medium by rotating the roller, and a roller manual drive section that is provided in the first unit, and the is configured to allow the roller to be manually rotated. The roller manual drive section is provided in a vicinity of the first end of the first unit when the first unit is stored in the casing.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A medium processing device, comprising:
 a casing that has an opening through which an interior of the casing communicates with an exterior thereof, and a door that opens and closes the opening; 
 a first unit that is storable in the casing, with a first end thereof at a side of the opening, the first unit being configured to be pullable out from the casing; 
 a second unit that is storable in the casing, with a second end thereof at the side of the opening, the second unit being configured to be pullable out from the casing; 
 a conveyance section, including a roller, provided in the first unit, the conveyance section conveying a medium by rotating the roller; 
 a roller manual drive section that is provided in the first unit, and that is configured to allow the roller to be manually rotated; 
 a motor; 
 a belt that transmits a driving force from the motor; and 
 a cover that covers the belt, and that has a cover opening that exposes the operation knob, wherein 
 the medium is handed off at a hand-off area of the first unit to which the second unit is connected, 
 the roller manual drive section is provided in a vicinity of the first end of the first unit when the first unit is stored in the casing, and 
 the roller is provided in a vicinity of the hand-off area, and rotates when the medium is handed off between the first unit and the second unit, 
 the roller is a drive roller that rotates around a drive shaft, and 
 the roller manual drive section is an operation knob provided coaxially with the drive shaft. 
 
     
     
       2. The medium processing device of  claim 1 , wherein the hand-off area is provided in the vicinity of the first end of the first unit, and of the second end of the second unit, when the first and second units are stored in the casing. 
     
     
       3. The medium processing device of  claim 1 , wherein the operation knob is formed integrally with a pulley that rotates the drive shaft. 
     
     
       4. The medium processing device of  claim 1 , wherein the roller manual drive section is directly and manually operable from outside by an operator when the first unit and the second unit are stored in the casing. 
     
     
       5. The medium processing device of  claim 1 , wherein
 the medium processing device has a maintenance face and a non-maintenance face, the maintenance face being a side of the medium processing device at which an operator performs maintenance work, and 
 the roller manual drive section is provided at the maintenance face. 
 
     
     
       6. The medium processing device of  claim 1 , further comprising
 a cover that covers the roller manual drive section, a first side of which faces the opening when the first and second units are stored in the casing, 
 wherein the cover has a cover opening that exposes at least a part of the roller manual drive section at the first side thereof. 
 
     
     
       7. The medium processing device of  claim 6 , wherein
 the cover has a side at which an operator performs maintenance work, and 
 the cover exposes a part of the roller manual drive section at said side. 
 
     
     
       8. A medium transaction device, comprising:
 a user interface that receives an input for a transaction instruction relating to a sheet-shaped medium; 
 a casing that has an opening through which an interior of the casing communicates with an exterior thereof, and a door that opens and closes the opening; 
 a first unit that is storable in the casing, with a first end thereof at a side of the opening, the first unit being configured to be pullable out from the casing; 
 a second unit that is storable in the casing, with a second end thereof at the side of the opening, the second unit being configured to be pullable out from the casing; 
 a conveyance section, including a roller, provided in the first unit, the conveyance section conveying a medium by rotating the roller; 
 a roller manual drive section that is provided in the first unit, and that is configured to allow the roller to be manually rotated; 
 a motor; 
 a belt that transmits a driving force from the motor; and 
 a cover that covers the belt, and that has a cover opening that exposes the operation knob, wherein 
 the medium is handed off at a hand-off area of the first unit to which the second unit is connected, 
 the roller manual drive section is provided in a vicinity of the first end of the first unit when the first unit is stored in the casing, and 
 the roller is provided in a vicinity of the hand-off area, and rotates when the medium is handed off between the first unit and the second unit, 
 the roller is a drive roller that rotates around a drive shaft, and 
 the roller manual drive section is an operation knob provided coaxially with the drive shaft.
